Doesn't PCC guarantee even more than that? From my reading, Apple can't exfiltrate any data to other servers (even ones that Apple owns) nor can they inject any processing other than what is outlined into that server. Otherwise, what's the point of such a stringent hardware integrity requirement?
- gigel82 2y agoThere is no way to verify that. It's just something they "pinky swear they won't do". The stringent hardware integrity is to protect against supply chain attacks (Apple making sure they fully control the stack down to the hardware and can run any software they want that connects to any external service they desire - such as the CCP, NSA, 3rdPartyAds, etc.)
